Codifies certain requirements and stipulations for licensed veterinarians to engage in telemedicine and telehealth.

New Jersey's S 4454 sets rules for veterinarians using telemedicine to treat animals. It requires vets to confirm telemedicine meets in-person care standards before use, establish a relationship with the pet owner (by verifying identities and disclosing credentials), and review medical records prior to sessions. The bill mandates real-time video communication during visits (with limited exceptions), written consent about telemedicine risks, and prohibits prescriptions for Schedule II controlled substances without an initial in-person exam and regular follow-up visits. Vets must maintain detailed records and provide follow-up care instructions if telemedicine cannot cover all necessary clinical information.
